LM Wind Power A/S maintains a portfolio of 15 pending office actions within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These actions are distributed across 13 distinct examiners, indicating that most matters are being reviewed by different individuals. This workload is spread across 7 distinct art units, reflecting a broad technical scope within the company's mechanical engineering filings.
FLORES, JUAN G is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, currently managing 2 pending office actions. This concentration is low relative to the total of 15 pending office actions, as the majority of the 13 distinct examiners are likely handling only one matter each. The presence of 7 distinct art units suggests that the company's innovations are being evaluated by a wide variety of specialized technical groups. This distribution requires a versatile prosecution approach to address the diverse requirements of multiple examiners.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 3 (21%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 11 (79%) |
